A Kansas youth pastor charged with stabbing his wife and five children after setting their home on fire told police he carried out the frenzied attack because his family was about to be evicted, court documents show.
Matthew Lee Richards, 41, called himself a “monster” as he described how he allegedly set fire to the basement of the family home in Shawnee early on 16 September before going room to room slashing his family members, according to a newly-unsealed affidavit obtained by the Kansas City Star.
